Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a 1999 Boxster, Arctic Silver. The trunk lid has multiple outward dimples where someone slammed the trunk on items that were too tall. In addition the silver paint is getting thin, and you can, in certain lights, see the white primer underneath. Seller on eBay has a minty trunk lid from a 2002 Boxster S with the same paint code. Is this a direct bolt-on swap? The replacement lid is $150 including shipping, and I would pay more than that to have the existing lid repaired and repainted.

Don't make me drive up to Virginia!!! Actually I went ahead and pulled the trigger based on some info I found on another site. Good news for you, or someone else looking, is that the same seller has another one for sale right now.
